We are sticking with JAMES BALDWIN this week, the master. James Baldwin had  the ability to thoughtfully, beautifully, honestly transfer his brilliant and complex mind onto the page. Because we could not choose, we are offering three selections. Feel free to read/watch any of them, and then we can talk generally about Baldwin's philosophy, approach, and what, if anything, has changed between then and now.
